Is Palantir ethical?

In April 2025, ICE gave Palantir a $30 million contract extension to work on ImmigrationOS, a system that helps keep track of and manage immigration case data.

Palantir has previously been criticized for its work with ICE and role in President Donald Trump's crackdown on immigration. Federal documents from April revealed that the company had a $30 million contract with the agency to provide "real-time visibility" on people self-deporting.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement records show Palantir recently received a $30 million contract to build a platform to track migrant movements in real time.

Palantir's CEO has doubled down on his support for Israel, saying he's willing to lose staff if it means standing by his principles.

Last January, Palantir inked a strategic partnership with Israel’s Ministry of Defense to supply data analytics and AI technology for the country’s ongoing military operations, including the war in Gaza.

Palantir, the data-mining company, provides the Israeli military as well as that of other countries with artificial intelligence models.

Palantir Technologies, a data analysis and technology firm that provides militaries with artificial intelligence, has used its technologies to support the Israel Defense Forces post-Oct.

Palantir has ramped up its AI-powered military tools for Israel since the Israel's war in Gaza began, reflecting rising demand for AI systems in conflict context.

For instance, The Nation published an article alleging that Palantir has been supplying the Israeli military with advanced and powerful targeting capabilities, implicating the company in facilitating mass civilian deaths in Gaza.

Notably, Palantir entered a contract with the Israeli military in 2024.

According to a United Nations report, Palantir provided the Israeli military with artificial intelligence technology able to integrate real-time battlefield data for automated decision-making.

Palantir is also among dozens of corporate donors — alongside Meta, Amazon, Apple and Google — backing Trump's planned $400 million White House ballroom renovation.

While defenders argued Thiel’s words were being taken out of context, maybe it was hard to read the hackneyed “evil is good” spiel earnestly when coming from a man who made much of his fortune from the shady surveillance and data company Palantir, previously donated $1.25 million to help elect President Donald Trump, and has recently been touring around a lecture series on the topic of The Antichrist.

Palantir, which is also a donor for the White House's new ballroom that is under construction, just inked a contract with the U.S. Army worth up to $10 billion over the next decade.

WASHINGTON — The Army awarded production contracts to Palantir and Anduril totaling $192 million to move their next-generation mobile intelligence node to production, according to an announcement from the service Tuesday.

17, the U.S. Army awarded Palantir USG a $48.1 million delivery order for software to replace nine legacy ammunition-management systems.

The Army has advanced the Tactical Intelligence Targeting Access Node, or TITAN, into production, with Palantir awarded $127 million in an initial eight-system production order.

Meanwhile, last week, Palantir secured a $178.4 million contract with the U.S. Army to develop 10 artificial intelligence-powered ground stations for a project named Tactical Intelligence Targeting Access Node (TITAN).

The contract was previously worth about $17 million and primarily focused on building and maintaining the Investigative Case Management System (ICM), a version of Palantir’s commercial law enforcement product, Gotham, which stores information about current and former ICE investigations.

The New York Times story found that since Trump took office, Palantir has received over $113 million in government contracts.

Headquartered in Denver, Colo., Palantir has faced scrutiny from groups including the ACLU, Amnesty International and the American Immigration Council for its role in expanding surveillance through large databases that use machine learning technology to identify patterns.

Karp’s remarks came as Palantir leaned heavily into its role as a key supplier of AI-enabled systems to the U.S. government and defense sector. The company highlighted a U.S. Navy contract worth up to $448 million to modernize the shipbuilding supply chain and described its “Ship OS” and “warp speed” industrial tools as part of a broader reindustrialization push in American defense manufacturing.
